Lyrics

I've been running scared,
and it's you I've been a'running from.
'Cos I'm so afraid,
to trust my heart with a-anyone.
But I find I can't escape,
the tender trap you weave.
I'm about to lose my heart,
said I do believe,
You're gonna make me want you (you're gonna make me want you)
Ooo, you're gonna make me need you baby (you're gonna make me need you)
You're gonna make me love you (you're gonna make me love you)
Whoa yeah, you're gonna make me (want you, need you, love you, baby)
I can feel your eyes (I can feel your eyes),
watching me no matter where I hide.
Staring in my soul (staring in my soul),
seeing all the loneliness inside.
Even in my sleep at night (in my sleep at night),
you been a-creeping in.
Though I try to fight the yearning (try to fight the yearning),
I'm too weak to win.
You're gonna make me want you (you're gonna make me want you)
Ooo, you're gonna make me need you baby (you're gonna make me need you)
You're gonna make me love you (you're gonna make me love you)
Hey, you're gonna make me (want you, need you, love you, baby)
(you're gonna make me want you)
(you're gonna make me need you)
(you're gonna make me love you)
(want you, need you, love you, baby)
I made up my mind (I made up my mind),
not to let you get ahold of me.
But I truly find (but I truly find),
I can't forget, y'know I can't break free.
'Cos there's something strange about ya (something strange about you),
that I can't ignore.
There's no peace of mind without ya (peace of mind without you),
and I'm very sure
You're gonna make me want you (you're gonna make me want you)
Ooo, you're gonna make me need you baby (you're gonna make me need you)
You're gonna make me love you (you're gonna make me love you)
Hey, you're gonna make me (want you, need you, love you, baby)
You're gonna make me want you (you're gonna make me want you)
Ooo, you're gonna make me need you (you're gonna make me need you)
Hey, you're gonna make me love you (you're gonna make me love you)
You're gonna make me (want you, need you, love you, baby)
